Hello World! It has been a crazy month or so! We hope your new year has been going well. Gideon has started out the year with a serious focus on his feeding issues. He was declared failure to thrive in early January and went to the hospital to receive nutrition through a NG tube (nasogastric). […]

Hello World! We hope you had a wonderful whatever-you-do-or-don’t-celebrate! 😊 We had a great holiday season here. We had lots of family fun time and overdid it a tad on some festive treats. We have begun to use Lazarus Naturals, as we have concluded our trial and pay out of pocket. I think they have […]

Hello World! I just love this picture! We actually caught Gideon in motion. He was smiling and giggling, too. Well, it has been another interesting month or so. First, Gideon has been using CBD from Hemp My Pet for a full year now! We are so thankful for their generous donations. In fact, we have […]

Hello World! How was your month? We hope it was fantastic! Gideon has had a pretty tough month. As is common among those with cerebral palsy, as you become aware of yourself and how you differ from others, you begin to feel and deal with many emotions. It is easy to imagine that frustration and […]

Hello World! We hope you have had a good month! This month has been marked by more changes and I don’t see that stopping any time soon. In a few more months, we will mark a year of Gideon being on CBD. It has done wonders for him. His achievements surprise us every day. That […]

Hello World, This past month was an exciting one! I began to work as Gideon’s CNA, which is a godsend financially. Baby sister Zoe came 3 weeks early. Gideon has begun to use his stander again and he has made great strides! He still has his ups and downs with getting both of his medicine […]

Hello World! It has been an interesting month or so. For the first 5 days, Gideon ate both medicine bottles. His slump only lasted 3 days, though. It appears, while he still has ups and downs where he does not get both medicine bottles, the slumps are shorter and less frequent. For another 4 days, […]

Hello World! The past month or so has been interesting. Overall, Gideon has had both medicine bottles most days. It seems that this annual roller coaster will be ending soon. There are still fluctuations as noted below. His OT has mentioned that he does seem looser on the newer dosage and he sat up very […]

Hello World! For my sanity and hopefully for the ease of reading, I have broken up Gideon’s progress by day below. In other news, since there is nowhere for special needs kids to really get out and play in our area, we have decided to turn our yard into a play area for both Gideon […]

Hello World! Hope everyone is doing well! We have been riding the end of Gideon’s seasonal roller coaster. On Sunday, January 28th, Gideon did not have Miralax for a few days and got really constipated. Although children with CP may have a higher tendency toward constipation than other children, Baclofen increases the risk of constipation […]

Hello World! Sorry that it has been so long! I have been away due to the re-emergence of the last sinus infection and Gideon’s winter roller coaster medication/sleep schedule. Gideon has been taking his medications more regularly. He still has days where he only takes his meds once per day. As a result, we have […]

Hello World! Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season! The toys we chose for the holidays were a hit! Gideon loved the fishing set and drums, especially. Gideon has remained on his rollercoaster of only taking his meds once a day. We have tried, again, to reset his schedule to no avail. So, we are […]
